Took the family to LA for a visit with the outlaws with boat in tow, sat the guys and I hit the secret hole about 9am by 1pm we had the 192 qt fish box 3/4 full only keepin big ones. Gave a five gal bucket full away at the ramp to some real nice folks. Sunday was kids day , 4 total, my daughter Rachel was queen of the big fish , two sheeps pushin hard on 6 lbs ea. and one black drum at 8 lbs. The kids put every one in the box that day and we had a blast. I cleaned about 100 fish and made alot of folks happy, especially with bags of fillets :lick:

Details: Launched at Happy jack off of Bell Chase Hwy first day used fresh dead shrimp on jig head on bottom. second day used #4 eagle claw wire hooks with split shot so the kids could hook them. Keep in mind those fish arent St. George sheppies they arent picky

If y'all got 100 sheepies on shrimp, y'all done real good! Them critters can be very hard to catch most of the time.
